423: Chen Heng is an old monster.

"That's natural. Yagyu Han broke through to Tongxuan before he was thirty years old. Even the veteran Tongxuan Martial Artist Tang Mingwang was no match for him."

When Yagyu Han was mentioned, a light appeared in their eyes, as if they greatly admired him.

"What about Gang Leader Chen Heng?" Chen Heng looked at them with interest and couldn't help but ask.

He was indeed curious about how the outside world viewed him, though it probably wasn't very flattering.

"Gang Leader Chen?" All of them were stunned.

"That person is not someone you and I can discuss."

When speaking of Chen Heng, their voices dropped considerably.

"The current Emperor died by his hand, and Qiyang City was also lifted by those Immortals of the Xuan Alliance at Gang Leader Chen's command."

"Tsk tsk tsk, to be able to command those high and mighty Immortals, this Gang Leader Chen must be even stronger than an Immortal."

"Although none of us have seen Gang Leader Chen's appearance, he's probably not young."

"I feel like he's older than my dad, right?" Gu Mo rubbed his chin, guessing.

"You can stop there. I estimate he's even older than my grandpa..."

"Who told you that? Rumor has it that Gang Leader Chen is a demon god descended from heaven, an old monster who has lived from ancient times until now..."

"..." Chen Heng's old face wrinkled, not knowing what to say.

He was only seventeen, and he hadn't even had his birthday yet!

Seventeen in nominal age!

"Pfft!" Bai Jun and Luo Shuo, who were beside him, both spat out their drinks at the same time, covering their mouths and turning their heads away.

"Alright, alright, Gang Leader Chen is not someone we can speak ill of. Let's go in quickly and pay our respects to Gang Leader Gou Long first."

Qin Xiang glanced around, saw that no one was paying attention to them, and quickly interrupted the topic.

"Let's go." Chen Heng's mouth twitched, but he didn't say much.

There was no need to get angry with these kids; after all, they couldn't even take one punch from him.

However, Bai Jun and Luo Shuo probably hadn't been beaten recently, daring to mock him to his face. He'd have to tighten their hides later.

After entering the main courtyard, Gou Longxun and the others, who were seated in secondary positions, immediately saw Chen Heng.

"Here! Chen Heng!" Qi Longhu yelled loudly at Chen Heng, inviting him to sit down.

"Drinking so early?" Chen Heng raised an eyebrow, ignoring Gu Mo and the others who were staring wide-eyed beside him, and walked over on his own.

"What did Old Master Qi just call that brother?" Gu Mo picked at his ear, his voice trembling as he looked at Qin Xiang and Yang Xiao.

"It seems to be Chen Heng..." Yang Xiao swallowed, already starting to sweat.

"Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and apologize!" Gu Mo was the first to react. It seemed they had been discussing the main character in front of him.

It was only because Chen Heng didn't bother with them; if he had, they would probably be minced meat by now.

"Gang, Gang Leader Chen, this junior was unaware of your youthful appearance. I have offended you greatly just now, please..."

Gu Mo and the other two stood trembling in front of Chen Heng, then plopped down on their knees.

"How did these kids offend you to scare them like this?"

Qi Longhu looked at the three trembling on the ground, then turned to Chen Heng, who was pouring wine.

"They didn't offend me. They just said I was an old monster who lived from ancient times until now." Chen Heng waved his hand, signaling for them to stand up.

"Alright, alright. If I were to bother with you, you would all be dead by now."

He didn't know who spread this rumor, but it was incredibly absurd.

But the most absurd thing was that some people actually believed this. Did he really look that old?

"Hahahahahahahaha *hiccup*!" Qi Longhu laughed heartily, even letting out a burp after he finished laughing.

"You kids are really interesting. Don't look at this kid's invincible strength; he's actually only seventeen."

"Oh, right, seventeen in nominal age, one year younger than all of you."

"?" The few of them raised their heads in confusion, looking at Chen Heng, who was drinking.

They couldn't imagine why someone younger than themselves would be so powerful.

"Alright, alright, hurry up and get out of the way. Don't wander around in front of me anymore."

Chen Heng waved his hand, and after shooing them away, he continued drinking.

"Oh, is the old monster who survived from ancient times sulking?" Xu Lieying chuckled, holding a cup of wine as he walked beside Chen Heng.

"Alright, stop making fun of me. Today's protagonist is that kid Yagyu Han. What have you all prepared?"

Chen Heng just wanted to skip this topic now; it was too embarrassing.

"Nothing much prepared. We just took a few things from Gang Leader's old man's treasury to give to him."

Qi Longhu opened his package, and a brocade box appeared before Chen Heng.

"You little rascals! I thought my treasury had been robbed!"

Gou Longxun almost jumped up when he heard this. Two days ago, he had discovered that many things were inexplicably missing from his treasury, and it turned out they were the culprits.

"So, all of you are giving my things to Yagyu Han, huh?"

Chen Heng put down his wine glass and stared at the three with an unfriendly gaze.

It was only then that Qi Longhu and the others remembered that this treasury seemed to belong to Chen Heng as well... "Uh, everyone's quite happy today. Let's talk about it later, later."

"Alright, then let's have a good sparring session later. I'll see if you've made any progress recently."

"You've eaten a lot of the qi and blood fruits I gave you, yet you haven't even broken through to Innate. I think I should help you out."

Chen Heng grinned, but his smile looked a little chilling... Approximately an hour later, it started to get noisy outside.

"It seems Yagyu Han is back." Gou Longxun put down his wine glass and turned to look at Chen Heng.

Unbeknownst to them, Chen Heng had already become the master of Qiyang City, and everyone was waiting for Chen Heng's move.

"Let's go, let's see the bride."

Chen Heng put down his wine glass and pulled out a long, strip-shaped object wrapped in black cloth from his dragon skin pouch.

"What is that thing?" Qi Longhu's gaze fell on the long, strip-shaped object in Chen Heng's hand, and an incredibly terrifying aura instantly repelled him.

"Alright, stop looking. This thing is my wedding gift for that kid Yagyu Han."

Chen Heng rolled his eyes. Qi Longhu was quite bold to actually use Internal Qi to test the green silk coiling dragon saber.

When everyone arrived at the door, Yagyu Han had already made a round of toasts.

The event had also reached the point where everyone presented their gifts.

First and foremost were Tang Junjun's maternal relatives.

The Tang Family's maternal relatives were indeed not simple; even Tang Mingwang, a branch member, was a Tongxuan Martial Artist. The strongest Tang Family member present today was even a Xiantian Martial Artist.
